    Wonderful review, Steven. I’ll look into this one. The famed original from Roja has always been a myth to me, mainly because I’ve never heard of anyone who’s actually smelled it. I’m glad you have!

    • @alexmartinez280
      @alexmartinez280 6 лет назад +1

      J Copeland Maybe one day I’ll send you an ml to sample and do a full review. It is one of the few worth every bit of hype.

  • @alexmartinez280
    @alexmartinez280 6 лет назад +4

    I have a full bottle of PR No. 4 I purchased right from Roja in London and can tell you it was $600 USD shipped with shipping costing $50. The scent is unbelievably good and my favorite Roja just necking our Enigma Parfum version. Nothing I have ever come across smells like No. 4. The Oud is upfront center but not decal like Al-Khatt. It was worth every penny. I have to try this clone to see how close it actually is. I have labeled No. 4 as a pure flamboyant Payboy scent that is VIP from top to bottom. A banana custard vibe is what makes this so different and oh so sexy, alluring and exotic. Olfactory colors of red, orange and pink. It’s warm, sensual and romantic/suggestive. LOVE it 😍

    • @Letsgetmoney-de6nv

      Bro I just purchased this based upon your Fragrantica review lol. I only realized it was you when you said banana custard lol

    • @alexmartinez280
      @alexmartinez280 3 года назад +1

      Letsgetmoney2015 Awesome bro! I hope you get to know it from many wears and love it as I have. Nothing smells like it. Super rare as I was told only 20-30 bottles ever made unless it was rereleased or rebadged under a new name. Congrats on a legit crown jewel piece!

    I recently acquired a bottle of this. This is challenging! The first challenging perfume I think I've ever had. My immediate thought was to resell it, but I couldn't get the dry down out of my mind. The opening was quite off putting. Definitely that indolic Jasmine coming out in the opening. But the dry down was amazing! I can't part with this. I will work at trying to get used to the opening. LOL.

    I've been going nuts with DUA recently. Last night, I ordered the new Invasion of the Barbers, Supernova, Desert Reflection, Casino Royale and Fortune. This one looks interesting, too! Thanks for the review.

      Thanks Steven! I think Dua has found an interesting niche that really appeals to us frag-heads. Their marketing is really good, too! Can't wait to try this one as well, I've added it to my buy list for next time.

      @yeshuasfragrantlife1262 3 года назад

      Try Dua Wicked! Its a clone of Roja Scandal. Its like 98% on point with the original, and has great sillage and performance. The only fragrances from Dua i don't like, are their Creed Aventus dupes. I bought Dua's 13zz, their clone of Creed Aventus 13z01 or something. Please don't buy dua 13zz, total garbage.

  • @Xochiyolotl
    @Xochiyolotl 2 года назад

    Supernova is such a light and even delicate fragrance that it doesn’t surprise me something else that’s Boulder could overwhelm it. It’s a very fresh, inoffensive sort of smell that makes you smell just like you just got out of the shower. Reminds me of an orange dreamsicle. Not hard to overwhelm. It happens I just bought my first bottle of supernova and it arrived this morning. I got the special edition. Anyway, I have been wearing it all day and I’m extremely pleased with its light delicate nature. Absolutely perfect for summer in Texas.

  • @sergs9455
    @sergs9455 6 лет назад

    You are right Steven I've never heard of this fragrance and probably would have never had the chance to acquire it I'm glad Dua is making a clone that gives you the opportunity to smell something similar

  • @JoeSCENTMe
    @JoeSCENTMe 6 лет назад

    I would love to try this. I’m one of the less fortunate because I don’t have the real thing. I’m typically not into florals just like you but if you love it, I know I will too.

  • @quintessentialbachelor395
    @quintessentialbachelor395 4 года назад

  • @abhishekdudeja9186
    @abhishekdudeja9186 6 лет назад +1

    Great Review Steven!
    I've always been intrigued by why floral niche scents tend to be so expensive, even though I believe that the general buyer would prefer a mainstream designer fragrance that can easily get more compliments. Moreover, I find it really difficult to wear a floral as a man, your thoughts?
    Keep up the great work! You're gonna reach 100k soon :)

    Hi Steve😅✌ help me my friend, give me an advise, a guy is selling a bottle of La Nuit de L, homme, it seems to be a 2011 version for the Batch 62HN but the thing is that the batch is written up side down, I mean against the other text, and I don't know if it is a fake, I was looking in the internet for images for the bottom of the 200ml bottle but I got no one it cost 100 dls, thanks for your advise.

  • @gulsanobar9379
    @gulsanobar9379 6 лет назад

    we hear online and from others that perfume reformulated .
    is there any easy way to know that perfume reformulated or not ? or any source or website where we get a list that perfume reformulated
    if a perfume's ingredients changed, does a company sell new one under the old written ingredients list on box?
    also if a perfume watered down how could we know it's watered down ?
    TIA

    Steven I don’t mean to get off track just need your knowledge to help me.. I have just acquired this fragrance and my research tends to move more towards feminine..Now question: what would you if at all layer this with for a touch manly ? Any suggestions. Thank you

    • @Redolessence
      @Redolessence  5 лет назад +1

      That's a great question. I am not that big into layering, but I would imagine layering it with something really woodsy and resinous. Some fragrances that come to mind are Creed Aventus, Mister Marvelous by Byredo, Juniper Sling by Penhaligon's, Gin and Tonic by Art de Parfum, etc. Thanks for watching!

    Love the channel man, any chance you could do a video on the supposed reformulation of JPG Ultra Male? From what I've seen the only place you buy it for retail (which I prefer so I know Im getting the legit fragrance) is Macys, I bought it from the website and the scent was great however It doesn't appear to be strong what so ever which was what this fragrance was known for according to all of the videos I watched on it, I seen a few others say the same thing that bought it in 2018. Keep up the great content.

      I'm really bummed to hear that.

    • @LuckyLucyFurr
      @LuckyLucyFurr 6 лет назад +1

      It's definitely the very indolic jasmine that is shared between the two and to be fair, you discussed that accord in your video. If I never smelled WD on my grandmother growing up I never would have made the association. Still a great video and appreciate all of your uploads.

      @TheIndyguy2000 6 лет назад

      @cuchanu 3 года назад

      Well they usually have a discount. And on top of that, they're trying to make clones of high end fragrances with high end ingredients, which cost money. Obviously you can find clones at the dollar store, so if cost is your primary concern you could get them there. But if quality is your primary concern you have to pay for it. Also their concentration is higher so you use less.
